WTF

so I'm trying to host a rats game on pro very hard, and a level V-100 joins and asks if he needs a saw?! How can anyone get to V-100 without playing rats? are they cheating? did they buy the toon?

What was the heist you played before starting rats? Sometimes the lobby showing in crimenet is the last heist you finished. Perhaps it showed Firestarter for him and he mistakenly joined thinking it still was that heist.

Check his achievements next time, but definitely sounds like it.

^(Or maybe his little brother was using his computer or something like that. Could always happen.)

Before Crimefest, a Rats rush was one of the best ways to grind out XP. After Crimefest, not so much. I've played with several V-100s recently that blew threw infamy (I checked achievements because I was skeptical of hours in-game), meaning they probably did a ton of HB. It's possible.

Another possibility is that the player was asking about needing a saw for the Garage Escape. I generally have 8 points that I play around with on my Masterforcer build, so sometimes I'll ask if we need a saw. I can definitely see that being misconstrued as inexperience if I didn't phrase it well.

it's the second time something like this has happened tonight. earlier, I was hosting shadow raid on very hard, and a level V-100 joined and fucked up the mission twice in a row, and then quit.

i am V-100 and i sometimes fuck up shadowraid twice in a row. just because someone is V-100 doesn't make him a god.

This so much.

As a client and non host the mission is far tougher than when you are hosting. I've fucked up my fair share of shadow raid as a non host, and I've solo'd it as a host now going on 85 times according to contract broker.

V-100 doesn't make you impervious to mistakes or desync.
